Rotimi Amaechi
Former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi has dismissed rumour of any probe by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC over a rumoured possession of N7b in foreign account.
Amaechi also dismissed statement credited to Governor Nyesom Wike that he is corrupt.
Amaechi made the statement while addressing APC supporters in Port Harcout.
While alleging that Wike has over 5bank accounts, Amaechi accused him of corruption.
According to Amaechi, “One of the reasons I removed Nyesom Wike as Chief of Staff was that I sat down and discovered that he was doing contracts, I discovered that if I sign a document for another person, he will seize it and ask the person for bribe.
“At the start of government,as Chief of Staff,he wore long robes that he was a Muslim, today,he is going on bended knees in churches, let me tell you,don’t take God for granted.
“The funny thing is that he knows that I know him,we are ready for them.
“When you see him,tell him to publish any other account I have apart from my salary account and the account I had as Speaker,i challenge anybody in the world to prove me wrong.
“They have asked me not to talk and am keeping quiet, I hope I can maintain that for long because I can’t stay here and a known thief is calling me a thief.
“I know all his companies and I have a copy for every document I signed as governor,let him say one company that I own.
He also said that the commission of inquiry set up to probe him was illegal and would not honour their invitation, “The panel is illegal, they should comply with the laws guiding the Constitution of such panel,when they do that,i will appear and defend myself,” he said
